Re: Allow modders to add more controls and change existing ones

I have it on good authority that this feature is coming Soon(TM). Bonus points: allow joystick mappings. well that's good to know, but would you mind sharing your source? It's not that I don't believe you β€” really I do β€” I just like having a truly authoritative source I can cite. Also, not that I c...

Allow modders to add more controls and change existing ones

As a quadriplegic, there are times I find the current key/controlbinding choices too limiting, even as flexible as they are. In particular, concrete placement is slow and tedious because I can't, with my injury, click & drag the right mouse button (I have the LMB & RMB swapped to be like Min...

Re: Version 0.12.6

This being the first changelog for this game I've noticed doing this (and the second one for this game that I've read at all), I like that you link to bug reports of bugs you've fixed. It gives context, while simultaneously giving credit to the user that reported the bug.
Also, yay, new update!

Re: [0.11.22] Fresh Install - Startup Crash/Restart, Memory Leak

Thank you for sharing this. I also use an HP envy with Windows 8.1, so now I know not to install this version of the game, on the off chance I otherwise would.

Most forums have a feature that enables showing support for a given post. Why not here? Is there a chance this water be a feature here?

Re: [0.12.5] Modules destroyed when modular armor used as ingred

Two options. Either apply an error and prevent it, or cause it to drop all the components into the inventory. If no space exists, place it in trash, and if that fails, either drop it on the ground or apply an error as above. Not sure what inventory you're talking about: Assemblers don't really have...

Re: Combinator based Computer that calculates Prime Numbers

This is the same sort of "because I can" extreme as the wireworld computer project, although it's a little more practical since you don't have to work with binary data.

"Play from here" option when watching a replay

(This is based on the idea put forth in load game from replays , but hopefully more clearly stated.) While watching a replay, it may occasionally happen that you realize you could've done something better. It would be nice to be able to pause the replay and start playing from there. Seeing as replay...

Built-in converter to turn replay data into a standard video format

(This is proposed as an alternative to game replayer with more control , which I also consider a good idea) when trying to watch a replay, it becomes quite irritating to realize you can't even get to a certain point, and it's virtually impossible to share a replay on YouTube currently, at least with...

Re: Limit robots in my roboports?

I hope with 0.13 we have a possibility to get the number of bots into the circuit network (# bots in total, # bots currently working) and then can decide to stop inserting bots. that seems like a good solution, and it's one I'd considered. I was hoping something like this was already in the game an...

Limit robots in my roboports?

How can I prevent my system from putting more robots in my network than it can hold? Because unless there is a safety mechanism I don't know about, a system that is continually producing robots and automatically inserting them in roboports will eventually end up inserting one into a maxed system (fo...

Re: [0.11.22] Crash when loading savegame

Based on what happened to me earlier today, I can confirm that the game's save/load system is a bit buggy. As I'm about to make a separate report thread for, it also crashes if you open the one of the save/load dialogues after one of the save file names has been changed, or at least the one last use...
